Default would you leave this car with stangers? look here....

so i went to sebring this weekend to work a little and saturday morning this car pulled up to our truck. he asked if he could put it under our tent cause there were no more garages left in the pits. we were like sure thats cool, we loaned his guys tools so they could fix some little stuff. well a little after he left and left his car under the tent. we had no contact information for the guy or anything. well the end of the day comes around and we havent heard anything. so we pushed it under the tent with the other cars and called it a day. the next morning he showed up and raced some untill about luch time and left the car with us again about 3:30 came around and it started to rain so we tore down the tent and loaded the truck. his tow truck was late and we had to leave so we had to leave it luckily one of his guys showed up to watch it until the truck came.

now i wouldnt post this story normally but look at this.















im sorry but i would never let a car like this out of my sight with complete strangers. but we are good people and helped the guy out.

There is that, but you also have to understand that if a person can afford to buy a car that expensive and doesn't mind driving it on a race track... they probably have enough money that they aren't worried about it. (and it's probably insured against theft)
